Do find the x- and y-coordinates of any point on the xy-plane.?
To find the x-coordinate of a point on the xy-plane, you look at the horizontal distance of the point from the y-axis. The y-coordinate of a point on the xy-plane is the vertical distance of the point from the x-axis.
What does y equals x look like?
If you're asking for the graph, then the function y=x would look like a diagonal line going towards the upper-right hand corner of the coordinate plane.
What does the line y 7 look like?
If you mean: y = 7 on the Cartesian plane then it is a straight horizontal line parallel to the x axis.
Is z axis negative?
No. An axis normally stretches out in both directions - infinitely. The x and y axis define a plane and the z-axis is normally at right angles to that plane. A good way to visualise it is to look at a corner of a room. If you face the corner, the convention is that the floor and the wall to the left meet along the x-axis, the floor and the right wall at the y-axis, and the two walls along the z-axis.
Why is a coordinate plane more useful than a coordinate grid that only uses positive integers?
idk look it u instead of wasting 10 minutes of ur life typing the question onto this website

What does a vertical axis look like?
the lowest or highest point on the coordinate grid/ graph
What does the axis look like on Mercury?
It is very close to perpendicular to its plane of rotation.
What does a screw look like?
An inclined plane wrapped helically around an axis.
What does the plane z equals x look like?
It intersects the x-y plane along the y-axis, and is at 45° angle to the x-y plane. If you rotate the axes so that x is horizontal, z is vertical, and y is pointing away from you, it will look like the line y = x in the xy coordinate system. See below z | | | |45°angle |/ y----------------x (y-axis is pointing away from you)
What does a coordinate grid look like?
Its like a grid separated in four quadrants with an x and y axis, with labeled coordinated (3,-4)
How does a Cartesian coordinate system look like?
The cartesian coordinate plane is a virtical line (the y axis) running through a horizontal line (the x axis). It forms a cross which divides the grid that it's placed on into four quadrants. The quadrants are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4, in counter clockwise direction, starting in the upper right corner. The point where the x and y axis meet, (0,0) is called the origin. You can graph points on the line by counting the amount f points in the first number of the coordinate (x) on the x axis, and then the second on the y. for example the coordinate (1,2) would be one space to the right and two up.

What does y equals x look like?
If you're asking for the graph, then the function y=x would look like a diagonal line going towards the upper-right hand corner of the coordinate plane.
What does a triangle turned 180 degrees look like?
A triangle. The effect of turning will depend on whether the plane containing the triangle is rotated - that is, the triangle is rotated around an axis perpendicular to its plane. In that case, it will appear upside down. Alternatively, it can be rotated about an axis in the plane of the triangle. In this case it will appear flipped.
What does the line y 7 look like?
If you mean: y = 7 on the Cartesian plane then it is a straight horizontal line parallel to the x axis.
What does the Iran plane look like?
it looks like a plane
How do construction workers use a coordinate plane?
They may not call it a coordinate plane, but reading 'plans' whether they are rough drawings of a project or a blueprint requires similar skills as reading graphs on a coordinate plane.
